By World War II, cheese production in Wales had nearly ceased; run out of business by large cheesemaking factories in England. Fortunately for us, there has been a revival of old ways by a new generation of cheesemakers. They have saved Caerphilly (the only traditional Welsh cheese made today) from the factory-made processed form it had become in England, and returned it to its original farmhouse character. Now, they are creating other fine cheeses such as Red Dragon, also known as Y-Fenni. This smooth, firm, tasty cheddar is made with Welsh brown ale and mustard seeds. Red Dragon is a buttery and spicy cheese with plenty of bite, but is not too hot. Not only do the mustard seeds give Red Dragon its marvelous flavor, but also its texture. The brown ale makes the cheese moist and tangy. Red Dragon is aged for three months, made from cow's milk, and is vegetarian. Serve as a table cheese or melted on toast with dark ale or try a Shiraz, if you prefer wine.

The tangy sharpness of the mustard seeds with the creamInes of the cheese are a perfect combo

the best!

Red Dragon is the reason I came to this website in the first place. I tried it out as a part of a cheeseboard on vacation, and now I can't actually picture my life without it. Creamy and strong with a really pungent mustard tang. It is so, so good.

Best cheese, yum!

So different and tangy and delightful- I have yet to see anyone who doesn't love it!

First time ordering, but I will immediately order again. This is so exciting my guests gobbled up my piece. The little "pops" from the mustard seed give it character as well as flavor. It is truly a palette surprise. I
